Weekly Roundup: The Trip, The Scams, The Cat, and The Wrong Guy

Weekly Roundup: The Trip, The Scams, The Cat, and The Wrong Guy

Susan just got back from 10 days in the Basque region of Spain — Bilbao and San Sebastian — and she has opinions, recipes, and a whole new outlook on life. The men cook. The fish is impeccable. The Iberian pigs live better than most people. And the San Sebastian area has more Michelin-starred restaurants per square mile than anywhere else on earth, including Paris and Tokyo. If you've ever thought about going to Spain and skipped past the Basque region, this episode is going to fix that. Jenny, meanwhile, spent the week in the dental office, accidentally gave a fake sheriff 35 minutes of her life, and watched her neighbor's perfect cat named Billy for a few days. Also someone tried to forge a business check and almost got away with it. It was that kind of week.


But the story that will make you stop what you're doing and immediately go search YouTube is the BBC Wrong Guy segment — now celebrating its 20th anniversary — where a man named Guy showed up to a job interview at the BBC and was accidentally pulled into a live television broadcast as an expert on tech legislation. Instead of stopping the interview, he just... answered the questions. Both of them. On live TV. In front of millions of people. He didn't get the job, but he absolutely won the internet. Jenny and Susan break it all down, swap scam survival tips every woman needs to hear right now, debate Miami versus the west coast of Florida, and somehow end the episode teasing a segment called The Right Guy. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs a travel recommendation or a scam warning — ideally both — and go look up The Wrong Guy on YouTube the second this episode ends.
